How do I know if my Satsuma is real?
1 Answer

Satsuma porcelain or pottery includes a maker’s mark with the name of the person who made the item. Japanese numbers may also indicate that a Satsuma piece was part of a collection. Genuine Satsuma pieces will not have a “Made in Japan” label and should only include Japanese characters. When in doubt, work with a certified appraiser to determine the authenticity of your Satsuma piece. Find a variety of expertly vetted Satsuma porcelain and pottery collectibles on 1stDibs.
